The major event that ended the Tokugawa shogunate was the Meiji Restoration, which began in 1868. This period was marked by a political revolution that restored imperial rule under Emperor Meiji, effectively dismantling the feudal system established by the Tokugawa. The rising discontent among samurai and the influence of Western ideas contributed to the shogunate's downfall, leading to significant social and political changes in Japan. The Meiji Restoration set Japan on a path toward modernization and industrialization.

During the Edo period (1603-1868), Japan experienced a prolonged era of peace and stability known as the Pax Tokugawa. This period lasted for over 250 years, during which Japan did not engage in any major wars, largely due to the effective governance and strict social order established by the Tokugawa shogunate. The absence of large-scale conflict allowed for economic growth, cultural development, and the flourishing of the arts.

There are several major events during this period that one could write a paper on. I would recommend doing a paper on the Battle of Sekigahara in 1600. It was this battle that set Tokugawa Ieyasu on the path to establishing the Tokugawa Shogunate, thus effectively ending the Sengoku, or Warring States, period.
It was already beginning to lift before this, but WW2 completely ended it.
